@BTS21_2019

@bts_bighit @AMAs @theestallion @ABCNetwork When BTS first attended the AMAs in 2017. So excited to hear the chants this year 😭🙌💜

BTS’ dance line, J-Hope, Jimin and Jungkook even performed a dance sequence for Megan’s rap part, making fans go berserk with the moves. They're now wondering if they'll get to see the same moves on stage or not.
